We are aware that not all families will have a Soroban/Japanese Abacus at home. If you do not have a one we have two options for your family.
Option 1: Virtual Abacus
We have found a virtual abacus that children can use. Those who will be using the virtual abacus please ensure that your child has access to a secondary device (phone or tablet) to work on to show the coach their work.
Please see the link below for the virtual abacus.

Option 2: Make your Own
If you are going to make your own Abacus, please ensure that it is made before the start of the program.

We look forward to introducing your children to the Japanese Abacus!
